In this episode, Rabbi Shefa Gold explores the idea of the "precious circle," a concept that profoundly changed the way she practices meditation and connects with Divine support. It began during a walk along the beach in San Diego when Rabbi Gold realized that in order to receive blessings, one must first be open to divine support. When we feel supported, we can relax, and when we relax, we can open, ultimately receiving the blessings we seek. This is the "precious circle” – a cycle of feeling supported, relaxing, opening, and receiving. Listen now and rest in Shabbat consciousness of timeless time, and spaceless space.
